Software Engineer, Product

About The Role

At Monumental we’re automating on-site construction with robotics and software. Atrium, our operating system for construction, lets us do everything from designing the 3D structures we'll build, to managing our robot fleet, planning operations, and analyzing data.

As we scale our operations and manufacture, deploy, and maintain more robots, the scope of our software keeps growing. We're now building internal apps for scheduling robot operators, planning site logistics and maintenance, and improving manufacturing. We're looking for a product engineer to help us build more and better internal tools, and to move manual processes into software.

We call it product engineering because you won't just be handed requirements. You'll talk to the people who'll use what you build (your colleagues), work out what's actually worth building, implement it, deploy it, and check whether it helped. If you enjoy building software products start to finish on your own, this role is a good fit. You'll get a lot of autonomy and the chance to build software that builds actual robots and houses.

What You'll Do

• Taking a problem from a colleague and understanding it, building a prototype, getting it in their hands, and iterating on the solution - often all in the same day.
• Designing and building tools to manage a growing fleet of robots spread across multiple sites.
• Extending Fenestra, our Notion-like internal tool for viewing and editing data from different sources.
• Helping bring prototypes from the ops and manufacturing teams to production, cleaning up the data model and code along the way.
• Working with hardware engineers, control engineers, and robot operators to find the best product experience for genuinely hard problems.
• Writing clean, idiomatic, typed production TypeScript and React. We also use Rust in places.
• Debugging memory leaks, crashes, and other problems, often by digging into the root cause yourself.
• Deploying and maintaining new backend services your tools need.

What We’re Looking For

• You've built full-featured web apps in idiomatic TypeScript and shipped them. React experience is a plus.
• Proven experience in building products in a zero-to-one environment, on your own or in a small team. This can be a side-project you’ve worked on, an indie app, or some other project you can show us.
• An eye for good design, both UI and UX.
• A strong sense of ownership. You can drive a project from start to finish without anyone managing you, and you're comfortable when things are chaotic.
• You use coding agents to ship faster and unblock yourself but take full ownership of the process.
